About Spitfire Attack

Spitfire Attack is a flight simulator/target shooting game. Shoot down the enemy planes, and destroy various ground installations, including anti-aircraft guns that shoot at you. The game was packaged with the large Flight Command Controller, which was a glorified joystick that had the look of an aircraft machine gun.

What the press said at the time

Electronic Fun with Computers & Games Vol. 2 No. 5

March 1984

3½ joysticks

“The controller is more fun than R&R, especially with the batteries in it which make it vibrate and light up. It works even without the batteries and still gives a decent illusion of being airborne. But the cart works equally well with a standard controller; if anything, it may be easier to control.”
— Electronic Fun with Computers & Games, March 1984

“It comes with its own decorative stickers and a very nice-looking air battle game, Spitfire Attack, which shows the Flight Commander off to its best advantage.”
— Electronic Games, July 1984

Electronic Fun rated games out of four joysticks.
